Dancing with Bees - by Anna Maynard (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Beekeeping and a handsome scientist make a directionless dance teacher come alive in this Tasmanian-set rom-com debut--"A romance as sweet as honey. . . . A page-turning, tender and funny story" (Steph Vizard, author of The Love Contract).

"A book that weaves together everything from love and lust through to family and friendship into a story that's familiar and entertaining, light yet deep. I couldn't put it down." --Hannah Moloney, author of Good Life Growing

Thirty-three and single, Sunny Moritz is drifting like a tumbleweed. That's what her frustrated parents say, and after a series of random jobs and a string of tedious romances with all the wrong men, Sunny is beginning to agree with them. Although her former high school crush, orthopedic surgeon Adam Harrison, is satisfying all her physical needs (without any pesky emotional requirements), the rest of her life remains disappointing. Something needs to change.

That's when an Internet rabbit hole leads her to beekeeping. Next thing Sunny knows, an odd, enigmatic, and ruggedly sexy scientist is assembling a hive in her backyard. Al can teach her everything she needs to know about bees--and maybe a little about herself, too.

As Sunny's desire for fulfillment grows, she begins to think there may still be a chance to reconnect with her parents and start dancing again. And perhaps, if she can shed her cynicism, Sunny just might stop drifting, take root, and finally bloom.

A perfect choice for fans of Beth O'Leary and Ali Hazelwood

"This bittersweet rom-com pulses with music, friendship and love." --Katie McMahon, author of The Mistake
